Full Description
Remains of a burial ground and chapel. There are slight indications of the north and west walls of a building, probably a chapel oriented east-west at this site. It is within the remains of a burial ground of which the north and west walls, about 2.0m thick, survive. The southeast part of the burial ground is cultivated and the remainder contains no grave stones. It was considered to have been one of the first Christian places of worship in the parish.
